| McCormanck 225 or upgrade my DNA-1 to a or B Rev. I actually preferred my DNA1/Rev A to the original 225. Report is somewhere on www.stereophile.comKal | |
| 24-bit 96-kHz remastering of classical Remastering is not panacea. Like every other technique and process, it can be done well and it can be done badly. If you compare that Gershwin/Fiedler remastered CD with the LS SACD released earlier this year, you will hear a world of difference a... | |
| Old Janszen E-stats sound very good I once had Janszen 130s (and 65s, too) and I agree with Kehut's assessment of them. What I did was to construct a vertical ladder-frame and stack the elements. This widely opened the radiation pattern and vasatly improved the soundstage. However, ... | |
| Question for classical lovers "If someone here has heard the new hybrid sacd LSO live release of Brahms 4/Haitink, I would like to know your opinion. I was surprised at how etchy and unnatural the strings sounded even on sacd layer. I hope I am not the only one who thinks that... | |
| Need advice on a passive subwoofer Ha. So you are planning to add an amp/crossover and, in effect, make it an active sub. You should have said so. Kal | |
| Question for classical lovers How about you or your room? There are many, many excellent classical recordings out there. Heck, that's all I really listen to and, believe me, if they were not satisfying, I would not be in this game.Kal | |

| Behringer DEQ2496 HELP Use independant measurements (RoomEQWizard, ETF, TrueRTA) and set the EQ manually. This might have been easier with RoomEQWizard software and BFD1124Pro.Kal | |
| Hooking up additional amps You seem confused: :If I go with these or any other monos, I would have to actually have to get tri-wire to connect the speakers unless the amps have dual posts for bi-amping." Dual posts are for biwiring, not biamping.But, yes, you can use any an... | |
| Hooking up additional amps You can do what you describe but, as Rwwear has pointed out, you will need to encorporate some way to balance each amp to compensate for their different gain and for the difference in the Line 3's output levels between balanced and SE. You can eli... | |
| powering up pre-amp That should be fine. Note that these rules are only to prevent any turn on/off transients in the preamp from reaching your speakers. If the preamp has no such transients, then the procedure is only insurance.Kal | |
| Bi-wire options "sorry, i meant hooking single wires to bi-wire terminals"Oh.In that case, 3 won't work.1,2 and 4 will, so try 'em. Kal | |
| Bi-wire options Biwiring requires two sets of cables so I do not see how any of your described options apply. Kal |
